Temperature Adjustments

When initially turned on, the LED will show the ambient temperature.

Your wine cooler has electronic temperature control on the front of the unit. You

can set the temperature of your wine cooler at any setting within the normal op-

erating range.

By pressing the (+) or (up arrow) temperature button on the display you can

increase the temperature. Pressing the (-) (down arrow) temperature button will

lower the temperature. Your wine cooler also has a light showcasing your wine

and for added visibility. A light switch on the control panel will activate the LED

light. Under normal operation it is best for the light to remain off.

 Thermoelectric wine coolers will not go more than 15-20°F below the ambi-

ent temperature.

 If you have just installed your wine cooler, please plug it in and allow the

wine cooler to sit for 2 hours before use. The allows time for the internal

cabinet temperature to cool down.

 An ambient temperature between 78-80°F is recommended for optimal

cooling. If the wine cooler is in a warmer environment, the performance of

the unit will be negatively affected.

 Minor differences between the internal cabinet temperature and LED dis-

play is normal.

Wine Cooler Features & Use

Unpacking your Wine Cooler

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the base and all adhesive tape

holding the wine cooler accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any packing, tape or printed materials before powering

on the wine cooler.

Leveling your Wine Cooler

Your wine cooler has 4 leveling legs. After properly placing your wine cooler in

its final position, you can level your wine cooler if there is uneven flooring.

Leveling legs can be adjusted by turning them clockwise to raise your wine

cooler or by turning them counterclockwise to lower your wine cooler.

Install the legs by screwing in the legs into the preset screw holes. (Please note

that the leg which stands on the hinge is the shorter leg.)

Proper Air Circulation

To assure your wine cooler works at the maximum efficiency it was designed

for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation and

electrical connections.

The following are recommended clearances around the wine cooler:

Do not over fill your wine cooler for proper internal air circulation.

NOTE: Allow enough space in the front of the unit to open the door to 120°.

Electrical Requirement

Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 V 60Hz,15 Amps outlet) with

proper earthing to power the wine cooler.

Avoid the use of two-pin adapters or cutting off the third earthing pin in order to

accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides

no effective grounding for the wine cooler and may result in shock hazard.

Use of Extension Cords

Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards under

certain conditions. If it is necessary to use an extension cord, use only a 3-wire

extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot outlet that will

accept the plug. The marked rating of the extension cord must be equal to or

greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. (2 Ampere).

Install Limitations

Do not install your wine cooler in any location not properly insulated or heated

e.g. garage etc.

Select a suitable location for the wine cooler on a hard even surface away from

direct sunlight or heat source e.g. radiators, baseboard heaters, cooking appli-

ances etc. Any surface unevenness should be corrected with the leveling legs

located on the front and rear bottom corners of the wine cooler. Avoid placing

unit where there may be electrical interference.

Your wine cooler is designed for free-standing installation only. It is not de-

signed for built-in application.

NOTE: To minimize the risk of rusting, leakage and insulation damage, avoid

placing the unit in a place where heavy moisture is present. Under no circum-

stances spill or directly apply water onto or into the unit.

Installing Door Handle

Certain models come with the door handle as a separate part during shipping.

To install the handle, open the cabinet door and carefully peel back the rubber

seal at the location of the handle. Screw holes will be exposed. Align the handle

and use the included hardware to secure it to the door.

Installing Water Tray

The purpose of the water tray is to receive the condensed water drained from

the cavity. The collected water will be self-evaporated so there is no need to

manually empty the water.

To install the water tray, simply sliding in the water tray along the track which

located beneath the cabinet body. The tray should be slide from the back of the

cabinet.

cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.

turer’s instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage.

General: Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda

mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning

solution, to wipe down your wine cooler. Rinse with clean warm water and dry

with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine

bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of

these chemicals may cause damage and/or discolor your wine cooler.

Power Interruptions

Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other

causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs.

When power has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet.

Vacation and Moving Care

For long vacations or absences, unplug the unit, empty contents from wine

cooler, and clean the wine cooler and door gaskets according to "General

Cleaning" section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving

always move the wine cooler vertically. Do not move the unit lying on its side.
